I’m So Glad I Found Jesus ~

Through life’s many trials,
and all its tribulations
I’m so glad I found . . .
the Life of salvation.

For my life was a battle,
I could never win
without Jesus telling me
go no more and sin.

Through life’s journey,
and all its ups and downs
I’m so glad I found . . .
the Way to get around.

For the road I was on,
was full of so much strife
until Jesus showed me
the Truth to eternal life.

Through life’s many trials,
constant failures and tests . . .
I’m so thankful the Light
lead me to find God’s rest!

~~~~~~

John 8:11

She said, No man, Lord.
And Jesus said unto her,
Neither do I condemn thee:
go, and sin no more.

John 14:6

Jesus saith unto him,
I am the way, the truth,
and the life: no man cometh
unto the Father, but by me.

Focused On Jesus ~

Lord, keep me focused,
keep my heart You centered
for this is the season  . . .
into the world You entered.

Help me to share,
the joys of my salvation
and to not take part in . . .
the festivities agitation.

Lord, keep me devoted,
keep my heart dedicated
for this is the season . . .
in which You’re celebrated.

Help me to express,
the hope I found in You
and not be discouraged
by others point of view.

Lord, keep me focused,
on the reason for the holiday
help me spread Your light
on the Life, Truth and Way!

I AM The Way ~

Jesus is the Way,
He is the only route
to His Father there’s
no other way about.

People may believe,
there’s another direction
but Jesus came to prove
He’s the only connection.

Jesus is the way,
He is the only path
all other roads will lead
to His Father’s wrath.

People may come up with,
their own substitution
but Jesus became for us
His Father’s restitution.

Jesus is the Way,
there is no other one
they only way to our Father
is through His begotten Son!

“Jesus saith unto him,
I am the way, the truth,
and the life: no man cometh
unto the Father, but by me.”

The Bread, Way, Truth and Life ~

As we gather,
on Thanksgiving Day
lets not make light
when our thanks we pray.

We need to be,
genuinely grateful
for all things
we must be truly thankful.

We need to express,
our thanksgiving
with praise and joy
sans any misgiving.

We need to thank,
our Father above
for sending His Son
out His pure love.

We need to express,
our joy and elation
for the freedoms
of our salvation.

We need to convey,
to God each day
our thanks for the Bread
the Truth, Life and Way!

John 6:35

“And Jesus said unto them,
I am the bread of life:
he that cometh to me shall
never hunger; and he that
believeth on me shall
never thirst.”

John 14:6

“Jesus saith unto him,
I am the way, the truth,
and the life: no man cometh
unto the Father, but by me.”

Seeker or Finder ~

 Today, I hear about,
people who are seekers
I understand in their Bible
they are only peepers.

They have no time to read,
the Word on their own
they see no need  . . .
for their sins, to atone.

The seekers go to church,
each Sunday, there they sit
but the rest of the week . . .
their faith just doesn’t fit.

They walk into the world,
become with it a friend
in the name of love  . . .
always careful not to offend.

I hear about the masses,
of the Jesus seekers
who are being misled by . . .
some of today’s preachers.

And I am so afraid,
they’ll never be true finders . . .
for to the Truth, Way and Life
they have put on their blinders!

Because of Jesus ~

Because of Jesus,
tomorrow is bright
because of Him
there is now Light.

He is my Truth,
my earthly guide
He is my Friend
my true confide.

Because of Jesus,
I have no fear
because I know
He is always near.

He is my Way,
He leads me to
all things good
all things true.

Because He loved,
me at the first . . .
tis why my soul
with joy now bursts!

I Don’t Want to See ~

Lord, though my eyes can see,
at times I wish I were blind
so I didn’t have to watch . . .
the destruction of mankind.

I don’t want to be an observer,
to the cruel and evil things
happening everyday in the world
nor the destruction it brings.

I don’t want to be an onlooker,
to those who are oppressed
nor be a bystander while others
freedoms are being suppressed.

I don’t want to be a viewer,
to the gory executions
nor be an armchair eye-witness
to the hateful persecutions.

Lord, I thank you for my sight,
but, all I really want to  see . . .
is the Truth, Life and Way
to come and set the world free!

No Other Name ~

No other name,
no other one
only Jesus finished . . .
what God had begun.

No other person,
no other being
only Jesus delivers . . .
salvation, eternally freeing.

No other god,
no other Savior
only Jesus has . . .
God’s mercy and favor.

No other way,
no other life
only denying Jesus . . .
will bring eternal strife.

No other truth,
no other plan
only Jesus brings . . .
redemption for all of man!

You Don’t Have to Be a Magi ~

You don’t have to be a Magi,
to follow the Christmas Star . . .
you don’t have to make a trip
or need to come from very far.

You don’t have to bring gifts,
of gold, frankincense or myrrh
it won’t cost you a thing . . .
for God’s mercy and favor.

You don’t have to be a shepherd,
to follow the Christmas Star . . .
you don’t have go anywhere
it will come to where you are.

For, Jesus is the Light shinning,
for all of the world to see . . .
He brings hope to the darkness
with His grace, He sets us free.

You don’t have to be a Magi,
or a shepherd coming from afar
you can accept the gift of Jesus . . .
today, right from wherever you are!

The Truth, Life and Way ~

Don’t believe in a God,
think there’s more than one
believe Jesus was a carpenter
but, not God’s begotten Son?

Know about the Bible,
but, you’ve never read it
think people are plain crazy
when they pray in the Spirit?

Heard about the end times,
in the Book of Revelation
but, don’t believe it’s you . . .
who’s gonna need salvation?

Have a gnawing feeling,
thinking maybe you’re wrong
feeling a little less sure . . .
of just where you belong?

Then go to a church,
speak to a Pastor today
he will help you to see . . .
the truth, life and way!

Jesus is What You Need ~

Losing your way,
in the affairs of life
want to have more joy
a whole lot less strife?

Can’t find the means,
to the proverbial end
tired of looking for . . .
that one true friend?

Getting tripped up,
stumbling all around
wanting something more
but, it just can’t be found?

Don’t know where to look,
not sure which way to go . . .
well, I have the answer
for the hopelessness you know.

There is only one way,
to find true happiness
only One person who can . . .
rid you of your loneliness.

Jesus, is what you need,
the answer to your strife
if you give Him a chance . . .
He’ll forever change your life!

The Bridge ~

There is a bridge you can take,
it leads to water’s living . . .
it’s there you’ll find peace
merciful and forgiving.

Over trials and tribulations,
it will take you across
the span of His loving hands
will lead you to the cross.

It is a bridge of assurance,
trouble waters will not last
and for you He has a future
much better than the past.

The hardships in this life,
will take faith to get through
and Jesus is the bridge linking
His Father right to you!

The Light ~

May the light of my faith keep burning,
no matter what should happen to me
may His Spirit spark and incite my trust
for Jesus is all I’ll ever need.

May the light of my faith keep growing,
no matter the problems I face
may His Spirit ignite and enlighten me,
for Jesus is my saving grace.

May the light of my faith keep shining,
when others try to mislead and deceive
may His Spirit revive my desire and hope
for Jesus is in whom I believe.

May the light of my faith keep glowing,
no matter how dark the world is today
may His Spirit kindle and inspire me
for Jesus is the Truth, Life and the Way!

Where’s Your Bible?

For some their Bible sits,
on their coffee table
they only reach for it . . .
when their TV loses its cable.

Others keep it on a shelf,
where it gathers a lot of dust
they only pick it up . . .
if they feel that they must.

Some carry it with them,
when they go to church
they only open it up . . .
when a verse  they’re to search.

But, then there are the ones,
who read their Bible every day
they know they need to study it
and apply the truth to their way!
